ITV's The Walk-In will tell the real-life events of how the charity Hope Not Hate foiled a neo-Nazi plan to murder Labour MP Rosie Cooper. This is the true story behind the new drama 👇
Ahead of Monday’s first episode, Matthew Collins – who is played by the award-winning, This Is England actor – told Metro.co.uk it is ‘almost spot on with reality’.
That phone call in July 2017 changed everything. Hope Not Hate alerted police and Renshaw was arrested.The 23-year-old had planned to kill Ms Cooper with a 19 inch Gladius knife, as well as take revenge on the officer investigating both his racist speeches and his grooming offences.Renshaw was going to wear a fake suicide vestMr Collins said: ‘You can’t make it up. Renshaw was a relatively young man at the time, and he dug himself a big hole.
Mr Collins continues to work for Hope Not Hate, and he says that every month he is contacted by one or two members from groups similar to the banned National Action.Back in the 1990s, he began passing information about the far-right to anti-fascist organisations as he was ‘tired and concerned’ about the direction the movement was heading towards.At the time, the far-right had expanded, becoming an ‘electoral threat’.
